Bedford Roughyed Posted April 11, 2019 Author Share Posted April 11, 2019 I really liked Fleabag. 1 With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game. Point, yeah go on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new series of 'Killing Eve' is due in late May for UK viewers. It has a lot to live up to, especially as this follow-up has a new writer.

They have the first two (of five) of a Ghost in the Shell series, plus the recent movie (which I believe I should avoid). I'll see what else I can locate. Over the last week or so I've watched an anime on Netflix called Your Lie in April. A lovely and moving series even if I'm perhaps too jaded to have been surprised by any of the surprises. Just because you know you're about to be kicked in the nuts doesn't mean it hurts any less. So, yes, that get's my vote as a series you should watch, even if occasionally it tries to sabotage itself in the serious bits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Futtocks Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 The latest David Attenborough series is on Netflix instead of the BBC. Still rammed to the gunwales full of stunning footage, though. 1 Let me never fall into the vulgar mistake of dreaming that I am persecuted whenever I am contradicted.

They had to tie the threads to set everything up. Does leave a lot to do in 5 episodes though, even if 3 or 4 of them are 80 mins long.

I agree, I found some of the tidying up really helpful, even if at times it did feel a bit like a Greatest Hits tour, with all your favourites lined up together. It will be interesting to see how this goes, as I do agree with an article I read that a lot of what has made it popular has gone to one side somewhat now for the grand battles, and tbh I find that a bit boring. The politics and backstabbing are the real points of interest. I am finding the rise of the female roles fascinating in this. Daenerys, Cersei, Sansa and Arya are far better characters than most of the men, and it is interesting that they could be the ones ruling the world rather than the men that were in place in Series 1. Although this boring obsession with Jon Snow is extremely tiresome, hopefully a Dragon eats him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It started ... and then in a flash it finished ! That’s always a sign of quality telly . Must say I thought it would be longer after hearing the episodes would be feature length .
